Robert Browning; Augustine Birrell (ed.)

The Poetical Works of Robert Browning

Smith, Elder, and Co. : London. 1896 ; complete in two volumes. Vol. I – VII & 748 pages; Vol. II – 786 pages., Full leather, golden Hedge, Rubbed on corners, heads & Hinge, foxing only on frontispiece of Browning of one volume.

Robert Browning was a prolific English poet and playwright best known for his mastering of the dramatic monologue, which made him one of the foremost Victorian poets. Thematically his poetry was renowned for its irony, characterization, social commentary and historical setting, yet somewhat notorious for its extensive use of challenging vocabulary and syntax.

With a charming frontispiece of Browning to each volume, both featuring a facsimile of his signature in a fine binding of John Bumpus
